St. Patrick's Day & St. Baldrick's Day Celebrations

LIS celebrated St. Patrick's Day yesterday with a whole school assembly in the morning. The Msgr. Crean Division 1 Pipe Band made a return appearance, and there was a special guest bagpiper!
Is that Mr. Adam in the green hat?!?
There were Irish dancers, and the LIS St. Baldrick's Super Shavers were honored for their bravery in shaving their heads to support cancer research.
LIS Super Shavers!
